It’s a little pricey, but the Apple Watch 4 has excellent reviews and is known to have a pretty long lifespan. The Apple Watch is known for its abilities to integrate with GPS and health-related apps, which take workouts to the next level. Consider this for a fitness-oriented friend!
GoPro combines a high-quality camera and video recorder with a durable companion you can bring with on your adventures. The GoPro HERO7 is both shock and waterproof, so no matter how intense your endeavors are, you can be sure to capture it for future viewings. If you know someone into hiking or extreme sports, this would be the ideal gift.
Amazon’s Echo Plus takes Alexa to the next level and is a great addition to someone’s home. The new addition took a big step with 360 degrees of high-quality sound. Not to mention that it connects with more devices than ever before AND has motion sensor. Pretty cool for the price!
It’s hard to put a price tag on storage and this SanDisk model can store up to a terabyte in its shock, water, and dust resistant case.

Polaroid cameras are pretty retro and might be a side-step compared to the rest of the gifts on this list. The 600 96 is pretty cool because they’re durable and fun-looking. They’re also in limited supply so if you want one, go get it!
Home security is always in style! The Nest Cam integrates with other devices and live streams whatever you want in the house. It’s easy to set up and the products tend to last a while.
The Switch is awesome for a few reasons. The games coming out are really fun (Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, Mario Party, Zelda, etc.) and it’s really cool because it integrates with any TV and can be played on the go! Unlike other attempts, the Switch is here to stay so go ahead and invest!
The new Apple TV is faster than the last edition and works for 4K tvs. It’s as good as the Amazon Fire Stick and better than Chromecast.
Great accessory for Android users, which we believe is better than Fitbit and LG, but is just a tad below the apple watch. This is probably the most stylish one with the largest screen that has apps that help with everything from organization to fitness.
Awesome for Star Wars fans, it’s almost like a pet! The R2D2 rolls around, which is app-controlled. It doesn’t do that much but is a fun thing to have in the house.
We’re big fans of Bose speakers and the Home 500 model is one of our favorites. It has Alexa built in, which we know isn’t the greatest AI, but is still a bonus. Combined with its sleek design, eight-microphone speaker array which is great for parties! Pick this up for someone who needs a loudspeaker that can connect with various apps (Spotify, Pandora, Amazon Music, etc.)
We love the Roombas – they clean your house and adjust to different surfaces. It takes a bit to adjust to how your place is arranged, but once it’s set, it does a great job – no effort needed. The new model has a larger battery and learns faster, good buy for the price.
